Observers from the European Parliament, former Polish President Aleksander Kwasniewski and former European Parliament President Pat Cox, will hold meetings with representatives of the Ukrainian government and the opposition during their visit to Ukraine on November 6-8, Interfax-Ukraine has learned at the EU Delegation in Kyiv.

The observers also plan to visit convicted former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko in Kharkiv hospital.
